Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 588

Chapter 588:

Earlier, Marissa had urged Connor not to get involved in the conflict between the Doomsday Base and the Peridot Consortium, mainly to protect him. The Peridot Consortium was notoriously tricky, with a mysterious and powerful boss behind it.

Nobody wanted to provoke such a force without good reason, and Marissa didn’t want to drag Connor into trouble. Furthermore, she knew that Burnet would defend Clarissa.

She didn’t want Connor to feel awkward or have to fight against his close friend because of her.

In Connor’s eyes, she saw herself as an outsider. One day she would leave, and she intended to exit as quietly as she had entered, without disrupting his life. But he still showed up. His presence made her feel cherished, and she realized how pleasant it was to be cared about.

Marissa initially wanted to tell her he was someone she owed a debt of gratitude to but felt embarrassed. Instead, she replied, “No.”

Silver Fox, hearing what Clarissa had said to Aelfric, wondered why Lone Wolf had no conflicts with either side yet still showed up. After a moment, Silver Fox asked in a hushed tone, “Is Lone Wolf here for the chip?”
